We assess the responses of output and inflation to monetary policy shocks in the context of a Bayesian, monetary structural vector autoregressive model. We allow money supply and leverage measures to enter into the interest rate policy rule and use an identification approach that is by construction devoid of any price puzzles. We provide a comprehensive comparison between monetary policy shocks under a policy regime that follows a standard Taylor rule and those that augment the standard reaction function of the central bank with measures of leverage and the money supply. We find that contractionary monetary policy is more pronounced and persistent when the reaction function of the central bank is augmented with measures of money and leverage than when the reaction function follows a typical Taylor rule. Our results support the use and inclusion of monetary aggregates in monetary policy and business cycle analysis.
我们在贝叶斯、货币结构向量自回归模型的背景下评估产出和通货膨胀对货币政策冲击的反应。我们允许货币供应量和杠杆措施进入利率政策规则,并采用一种不存在任何价格谜题的构造识别方法。我们对遵循标准泰勒规则的政策制度下的货币政策冲击与那些通过杠杆和货币供应措施增强央行标准反应函数的货币政策冲击进行了全面比较。我们发现,当央行的反应函数被货币和杠杆措施增强时,紧缩货币政策比反应函数遵循典型的泰勒规则时更加明显和持久。我们的研究结果支持在货币政策和商业周期分析中使用和纳入货币总量。

We analytically characterize the comparative statics of the macroeconomy after income tax reductions in which production is organized in networks around the inefficient economy. We contribute to the literature by showing that in production networks, income taxes have different effects from revenue taxes which are assumed to be real distortions in the literature. The sectoral income tax reductions’ first-order effect on the GDP is given by a sufficient statistics: the product of the sectoral labor demand elasticity and sectoral Domar weight minus the sectoral labor share in the total labor supply, the latter of which is adjusted for labor supply elasticity if labor is elastic. We apply this model to quantify the effects of income tax reductions during the COVID-19 pandemic in the USA.
我们分析了所得税削减后宏观经济的比较静态特征,其中生产被组织在低效率经济的网络中。我们通过表明在生产网络中,所得税与收入税具有不同的影响,这被认为是文献中真正的扭曲,从而为文献做出贡献。部门所得税减免对GDP的一阶效应由一个充分的统计给出:部门劳动力需求弹性与部门Domar权重的乘积减去部门劳动力占总劳动力供给的份额,如果劳动力具有弹性,则后者根据劳动力供给弹性进行调整。我们应用该模型来量化美国COVID-19大流行期间所得税减免的影响。

A view from outside: sovereign CDS volatility as an indicator of economic uncertainty 外部观点:主权CDS波动是经济不确定性的一个指标

This paper proposes the volatility of sovereign credit default swaps (CDS) as a measurement of economic uncertainty. Sovereign CDS provide protection against losses from sovereign defaults and are traded for almost all countries by the world’s largest financial institutions. The premium for protection, the so-called CDS spread, depends on a country’s economic conditions and provides an outside view from global financial institutions. Our empirical results show that the volatility of sovereign CDS spreads contains information about economic uncertainty. For a broad panel of 16 countries, we find that sovereign CDS volatility shares directional information with popular news-based economic policy uncertainty (EPU) indices. Using Bayesian panel vector autoregressions, we find similar responses of output and unemployment to shocks in CDS volatility, equity volatility, and EPU. Our results further suggest that sovereign CDS volatility primarily reflects economic and financial uncertainty rather than political uncertainty.
本文提出将主权信用违约互换(CDS)的波动率作为衡量经济不确定性的指标。主权CDS为防范主权违约造成的损失提供保护,全球最大的金融机构几乎为所有国家进行交易。保护的溢价,即所谓的CDS价差,取决于一国的经济状况,并提供了全球金融机构的外部观点。我们的实证结果表明,主权CDS价差的波动性包含了经济不确定性的信息。对于16个国家的广泛面板,我们发现主权CDS波动与流行的基于新闻的经济政策不确定性(EPU)指数共享方向性信息。使用贝叶斯面板向量自回归,我们发现产出和失业对CDS波动、股票波动和EPU冲击的响应相似。我们的研究结果进一步表明,主权CDS波动主要反映了经济和金融的不确定性,而不是政治的不确定性。

Abstract The rapid development of the digital economy has highlighted the crucial role of data in economic growth. This study investigates the impact of two types of innovation on long-term growth by incorporating data into a model of creative destruction and knowledge accumulation. Unlike traditional factors, data exhibit nonrivalry between the two research and development (R&D) sectors, thereby influencing the growth rate of economic outputs simultaneously without interference. Our findings reveal the existence of a balanced growth path (BGP) in both the decentralized economy and the social planner’s economy. In horizontal innovation, data can be transformed into digital knowledge to promote the economic growth [Cong et al. (2021)]. In addition to horizontal innovation, the utilization of data in vertical innovation also enhances the success rate of innovation, with a gradual decrease in per capita data usage on the BGP. Moreover, as agents accumulate human capital, the economy achieves higher output levels, effectively addressing consumer privacy concerns. However, along the transitional path, insufficient data provision by both R&D sectors leads to lower economic growth rates or more intense economic fluctuations, necessitating policy interventions.
数字经济的快速发展凸显了数据在经济增长中的关键作用。本研究通过将数据纳入创造性破坏和知识积累的模型,考察了两种类型的创新对长期增长的影响。与传统因素不同,数据在两个研究与开发部门之间表现出非竞争性,从而在不受干扰的情况下同时影响经济产出的增长率。我们的研究结果揭示了在分散经济和社会计划经济中都存在平衡增长路径(BGP)。在横向创新中,数据可以转化为数字知识,促进经济增长[Cong et al.(2021)]。除了横向创新之外,纵向创新中的数据利用也提高了创新的成功率,BGP的人均数据使用量逐渐下降。此外,随着代理人积累人力资本,经济达到更高的产出水平,有效地解决了消费者隐私问题。然而,在过渡路径上,研发部门提供的数据不足导致经济增长率下降或经济波动加剧,需要进行政策干预。

Abstract This paper proposes a linear quadratic approximation approach to dynamic nonlinear rationally inattentive control problems with multiple states and multiple controls. An efficient toolbox to implement this approach is provided. Applying this toolbox to five economic examples demonstrates that rational inattention can help explain the comovement puzzle in the macroeconomics literature.

Abstract Was the Gold Standard a major determinant of the onset and protracted character of the Great Depression of the 1930s in the USA and worldwide? In this paper, we model the “Gold Standard hypothesis” in an open-economy, dynamic general equilibrium framework. We show that encompassing the international and monetary dimensions of the Great Depression is important to understand the turmoil of the 1930s. In particular, the Gold Standard turns out to be a strong transmission mechanism of monetary shocks from the USA to the rest of the world. Our results also suggest that the waves of successive nominal exchange rate devaluations coupled with the monetary policy implemented in the USA might not have enhanced the recovery.
金本位制是20世纪30年代美国和世界范围内大萧条的开始和持续的主要决定因素吗?在本文中,我们在一个开放经济的动态一般均衡框架中建立了“金本位假说”的模型。我们表明,要理解上世纪30年代的动荡,涵盖大萧条的国际和货币层面是很重要的。特别是,金本位被证明是一种强有力的传导机制,将货币冲击从美国传导到世界其他地区。我们的研究结果还表明,连续的名义汇率贬值浪潮加上美国实施的货币政策可能没有促进复苏。

The race between offshoring and automation in explaining wage polarization 离岸外包和自动化之间的竞争解释了工资两极分化

Abstract Offshoring and automation are sources of wage polarization. We reassess these two determinants of wage polarization in a single directed technical change setup that encompasses routine and nonroutine production. We empirically establish the conditional positive relationship between automation and relocations on one side and wage polarization on the other. Theoretically, we show that wage polarization increases with automation and offshoring. In particular, wage polarization in favor of domestic (nonroutine) high(low)-skilled workers is positively affected by an increase in domestic (nonroutine) high(low)-skilled labor quantity and/or absolute productivity. Additionally, it is also positively influenced by a rise in foreign (routine) medium-skilled labor quantity and/or absolute productivity while negatively impacted by an increase in domestic (routine) medium-skilled labor quantity and/or absolute productivity. We show that the effect of offshoring on wage polarization diminishes with the degree of substitutability between routine and nonroutine sectors in the economy, with the share of machines in the production of intermediate goods, and with the scale effect. We quantitatively assess the impact through a thorough data-based calibration exercise, where the numerical results confirmed the theoretical findings.
离岸外包和自动化是工资两极分化的根源。我们在一个包含常规和非常规生产的单一定向技术变革设置中重新评估工资两极分化的这两个决定因素。我们通过实证建立了自动化与再安置和工资两极分化之间的条件正相关关系。从理论上讲,我们表明工资两极分化随着自动化和离岸外包而加剧。特别是,有利于国内(非常规)高(低)技能工人的工资两极分化受到国内(非常规)高(低)技能劳动力数量和/或绝对生产率增加的积极影响。此外,外国(常规)中等技能劳动力数量和/或绝对生产率的增加也对其产生积极影响,而国内(常规)中等技能劳动力数量和/或绝对生产率的增加则对其产生消极影响。我们表明,离岸外包对工资两极分化的影响随着经济中常规和非常规部门之间的可替代性程度、机器在中间产品生产中的份额以及规模效应而减弱。我们通过全面的基于数据的校准练习定量评估影响,其中数值结果证实了理论发现。

Abstract This paper systematically examines the theoretical and quantitative interrelations between government spending and disposable income inequality in a tractable monopolistically competitive Ramsey macroeconomy. Upon an increase in government size, we analytically show that whether the long-run after-tax Gini coefficient rises or falls depends on the sign and magnitude of the wealth/capital inequality effect versus those of the adjusted-labor effect. Under (i) a mild level of productive public expenditure externalities and (ii) a sufficiently high intertemporal elasticity of consumption substitution, our calibrated model is able to generate qualitatively as well as quantitatively consistent income inequality effects of government spending vis-à-vis recent estimation results.
摘要本文系统地考察了在可控制的垄断竞争拉姆齐宏观经济中政府支出与可支配收入不平等之间的理论和定量关系。在政府规模增加的情况下,我们分析表明,长期税后基尼系数的上升或下降取决于财富/资本不平等效应与调整后劳动力效应的符号和大小。在(i)生产性公共支出外部性的温和水平和(ii)消费替代的足够高的跨期弹性下,我们的校准模型能够产生定性和定量一致的政府支出收入不平等效应-à-vis最近的估计结果。

Government debt and fiscal multipliers in the era of population aging 人口老龄化时代的政府债务与财政乘数

Abstract Over the past decade, the most salient changes in macroeconomic conditions in developed economies have included rising government debt and population aging, which are strongly correlated with each other. This paper investigates fiscal multipliers by disentangling the effects of population aging from those of government debt. Our analysis, which uses heterogeneous panel data from 24 OECD economies, shows that while fiscal policy is ineffective for economies with high-debt levels, it is effective for economies with low-debt levels. Furthermore, the estimation results reveal that fiscal policy is ineffective for aged economies, regardless of the level of government debt. However, for nonaged economies, while fiscal policy leads to negative effects on output in times of high debt, its positive effects are more pronounced in times of low debt. Our results suggest that, for the effective implementation of fiscal stimulus policies, policy-based stimulation of employment in the labor market is essential.
摘要近十年来,发达经济体宏观经济状况最显著的变化是政府债务上升和人口老龄化,两者之间存在很强的相关性。本文通过将人口老龄化的影响与政府债务的影响分开来研究财政乘数。我们的分析使用了来自24个经合组织经济体的异质性面板数据,结果表明,尽管财政政策对高债务水平的经济体无效,但对低债务水平的经济体有效。此外,估计结果表明,无论政府债务水平如何,财政政策对老龄化经济体都是无效的。然而,对于非老龄化经济体而言,尽管财政政策在高债务时期对产出产生负面影响,但在低债务时期,其积极影响更为明显。我们的研究结果表明,为了有效实施财政刺激政策,以政策为基础的劳动力市场就业刺激至关重要。

Abstract The canonical income process, including autoregressive, transitory, and fixed effect components, is routinely used in macro and labor economics. We provide a guide for its estimation using quasidifferences, cataloging biases in the estimated parameters for various $N$ , $T$ , initial conditions, and weighting schemes. Using Danish administrative data on male earnings, estimation in quasidifferences yields divergent estimates of the autoregressive parameter for different weighting schemes, which conforms to our simulation results when the variance of transitory shocks is higher than that of persistent shocks, true persistence is high, and the persistent component’s variance in the first sample year is nonzero. We further apply quasidifferences to the data from a calibrated lifecycle model and find significant biases in the persistence of shocks and their insurance. Estimation of the income process using quasidifferences is reliable only when the variance of persistent shocks is higher than that of transitory shocks and the moments are equally weighted.
典型收入过程包括自回归、暂时性和固定效应成分,通常用于宏观经济学和劳动经济学。我们提供了一个使用准差分的估计指南,在各种$N$, $T$,初始条件和加权方案的估计参数中编目偏差。利用丹麦男性收入的行政数据,准差异估计对不同权重方案的自回归参数产生了不同的估计,这与我们的模拟结果一致,当短暂冲击的方差高于持续冲击的方差,真正的持久性很高,持续成分的方差在第一个样本年是非零的。我们进一步将准差异应用于校准生命周期模型的数据,并发现在冲击的持久性及其保险方面存在显著偏差。只有当持续冲击的方差高于短暂冲击的方差,且时刻的权重相等时,使用准差异对收入过程的估计才是可靠的。
